So comforting! The waitress was knowledgeable on their practices. Dedicated fryer for my fries, and the menu had many GF as well as DF options.

Amazing experience here! They are super allergy conscious! When I asked about a gluten free menu they immediately notified me about how they have a separate dedicated fryer and bread options available. Service was great and food/drinks were very good as well. Will definitely be back here!

Review
So many options!! They have two different GF breads (one bun, one local bread), staff was pretty knowledgeable and very careful, and they were even able to bake instead of fry their tater tots so I could eat them. Not to mention, they have multiple GF dessert options! You never see that. Highly recommend! Was so happy eating there.
Review
The staff was very knowledgeable and double checked on some modifications to make sure my meal was both gluten and dairy free. Mixed berry crumble with vegan coconut ice cream was delicious!
Review
staff seemed knowledgeable but food overall was very subpar it was not very good. the seared tuna taco was bland and the tator tatchos were just kinda gross. i was disappointed bc the other reviews made this seem like a really good place. i will not be returning
Review
Excellent service and food. I had the breakfast sandwich on rosemary bread and it was fantastic! Will definitely be back again!
Review
We found this restaurant on Find Me GF and we had a good experience! My boyfriend had the cheeseburger and I had a grilled cheese and bacon sandwich. They have gluten free buns and bread and both of our sandwiches were flavorful. We had tater tots which we were assured are not fried with anything else. Our waiter was helpful and asked his head cook all of our questions before allowing us to order our food. The food was quick and tasty! They even had a few gf desserts so we tried them all. We didn’t care for either of the cookies (dry and flavors were odd-pb cookie tasted like pumpkin and the choc chip cookie had coconut in it) but the brownie was very moist and flavorful. My boyfriend is a celiac and he did not have any ill effects after eating here :-)
